Introduction

Important!

It is important that this User Guide should be retained with your Ice & Water refrigerator for

future reference. Should the appliance be sold or transferred to another owner, please ensure

that the User Guide is left with the appliance. This will ensure that the new owner can familiarize

themselves with the information and warnings contained within the Guide.

WARNING!

Electric Shock Hazard

Read and follow the SAFETY AND WARNINGS outlined in this User Guide

before operating this appliance.

Failure to do so can result in death, electric shock, fire or injury to persons.

Use this appliance only for its intended purpose as described in this User Guide.

Important safety precautions

Warning

When using this appliance always exercise basic safety precautions including the following:

Danger

This appliance is not intended for use by children or infirmed persons without supervision. This

is especially important when using the freezer drawer compartment. Young children should be

supervised to ensure they do not play with the appliance.

Risk of child entrapment. Before you throw away your old refrigerator or freezer:

– Take off the doors

– Leave the shelves in place so that children may not easily climb inside.

Disposal

Extreme care must be taken when disposing of your old appliance to avoid hazards. The

refrigerant gas must be safely removed and for the safety of young children, remove doors.

Your Fisher & Paykel Appliances Authorised Service Center will be able to give advice on

environmentally friendly methods of disposing of your old refrigerator or freezer.

Electrical

This appliance must be properly installed in accordance with the installation instructions before

it is used.

Never unplug your refrigerator or freezer by pulling on the power cord.

Always grip the plug firmly and pull straight out from the outlet socket.

Do not plug in any other appliance at the same power point outlet socket as your refrigerator or

freezer is using. Do not use extension cords or double adapters with these products.

Repair or replace immediately all electric service cords that have become frayed or otherwise

damaged. Do not use a cord that shows cracks or abrasion along its length or at either the plug

or appliance end.

If the power supply cord is damaged, it must only be replaced by your Fisher & Paykel Appliances

Authorised Service Center because special purpose tools are required.

Safety and warnings

4Safety and warnings

When moving your appliance away from the wall, be careful not to roll over or damage the

power cord.

Unplug your refrigerator or freezer before cleaning or replacing the interior lightbulb.

Storing food and drinks

Never store volatile or flammable materials in your refrigerator or freezer as they may explode.

Never freeze liquids in glass containers. Liquid expands during freezing, which may cause the

container to explode.

Never freeze carbonated drinks. They may explode.

Do not consume food if it is too cold. Food removed from the freezer compartment may be cold

enough to cause damage when brought into contact with bare skin, eg. frozen ice cubes.

Power failure – food safety

Do not refreeze frozen foods that have thawed completely. Follow the recommendations below if

you discover food in your freezer has thawed:

1) Ice crystals still visible – food may be refrozen but should be stored for a shorter period than

recommended.

2) Thawed but refrigerator cold – refreezing generally not recommended. Fruits and some

cooked food can be refrozen but use as soon as possible. Meat, fish, poultry – use immediately or

cook then refreeze. Vegetables – discard as they usually go limp and soggy.

3) Thawed but warmer than 38˚F (4˚C). Red meat can be cooked immediately and refrozen but

use as soon as possible. Discard all other frozen foods.

Do not refreeze frozen foods that have thawed completely. The food may be dangerous to eat.

Important!

Cleaning

Many commercially available cleaning products contain solvents which may attack plastic

components of your refrigerator or freezer and cause them to crack. Please refer to the cleaning

care section of this booklet for further advice.

Important!

It is imperative the pressure reducing valve (PRV) is fitted prior to the filter. This valve ensures

the water will not flow back into the mains from the refrigerator water system. If the PRV is not

fitted to the connection line your Ice & Water refrigerator features may not function in some

circumstances.

It is recommended that an authorised plumber in your state or town is used to install the water

connection.

The new tubings supplied with the refrigerator are to be used, old tubings from old Ice & Water

connections should not be used.

Installation precautions/warning

DO NOT use with water that is microbiologically unsafe or of unknown quality without

adequate disinfection before or after the system.

WARNING – connect to potable water supply only.

DO NOT install on line pressure above 130 psi (900 kPa) or below 22 psi (150 kPa).

DO NOT use on hot water supply (100°F [38°C max.]).

DO NOT install near electrical wires or water pipes that will be in the path of drilling when

selecting the location of filter system.

DO NOT mount filter in such a position so that it will be struck by other items, such as

wastebaskets, etc.

DO NOT install the filter in direct sunlight as prolonged exposure to light can weaken plastic

components.

DO NOT install in a location that is susceptible to freezing temperatures as damage to the

housing could occur.

DO NOT screw filter to the refrigerator.

AVOID contamination of pipes during installation.

DO NOT use copper tubing. The plastic tubing supplied should always be used.

6Installation instructions

Installation instructions:

Ensure that refrigerator is not plugged into a power supply.

Locate a cold water supply/feed only suitable for a water

connection. Tee & tap fitting is not supplied. If you can’t find

the connection faucet, contact an authorised plumber in

your state or town to fit your water connection.

Connect the 8” (200 mm) blue tubing to the outlet of the

PRV (blue collet) and the inlet connection of the water filter

cartridge as shown in Diagram 1. Gently pull on both ends

to ensure it is locked.

Connect the white ¼” (6 mm) tubing to the outlet of the

water filter cartridge as shown in Diagram 2. Gently pull to

ensure it is locked.

Measure the required length of tubing to run from the PRV

to the water connection point.

Cut the tubing making sure the ends are square and clean.

Connect the tubing to the faucet connection and the base

of the PRV (white collet) and then to the faucet as shown

in Diagram 3. Please note that the faucet connection

supplied should fit most installation situations. If your

faucet requires a different fitting, please contact an

authorised plumber in your state or town to purchase

the correct fitting.

Connect one locking key to each side of the water

filter cartridge in between the cartridge and the

locking collet as shown in Diagram 4.

To flush the water filter and check for leaks, aim the

end of the tubing into a bucket, turn isolating faucet

on and run at least 3 qt (3 L) of water through. Once

complete, turn isolating faucet off.

Locate desired position for water filter noting carefully the

following points:

It is recommended to fit the water filter in a vertical

orientation with the water filter head at the top. This will

minimize water leakage when replacing cartridge.

Ensure the filter is in a convenient location to access

every 6 months for replacement. We suggest that

this location is beside the water filter supply faucet in

a cupboard beside the refrigerator.

A minimum clearance of 2 ½” (64 mm) from the

bottom of the filter cartridge is required to perform

cartridge removal.

Do not screw water filter to refrigerator.

Installation instructions

Attach double sided foam to the back of the water filter head as shown in

Diagram 5. Write the date to be replaced on the filter (date installed + 6

months). Remove double sided foam backing and attach filter to the desired

position as located in step 10 (refer to previous page).

Run the ¼” (6 mm) tubing to back of the refrigerator ensuring there is enough

tubing to pull out the refrigerator for service.

Remove compressor compartment cover by removing screw at the top of

each side of the cover as shown in Diagram 6. Lift and tilt the compressor

compartment cover to remove as shown in Diagram 7.

Connect tubing into the water (solenoid) valve located on the right hand side of

the unit (compressor) compartment as shown in Diagram 8. Beware of hot pipes.

Pull gently on tubing to ensure it is locked in as shown in Diagram 9.

Place compressor compartment cover back into position, run the ¼” (6 mm)

tubing through the space provided at the top right hand side of the

compressor compartment cover in an upward direction and rescrew the

compressor compartment cover. As shown in Diagram 10.

The completed installation should look like Diagram 12 on page 8.

Turn isolating faucet on and check that all connections are dry and free of drips. If not, please

alert the plumber.

Coil water line tubing behind the refrigerator. Push your refrigerator into place being careful not

to kink or squash the water line running into the water (solenoid) valve.

Read pages 9 – 14 carefully, and then turn refrigerator on.

The first time you require water out of the dispenser, there will be a delay while the water

reservoir fills up. As this is happening, the symbol will flash. Once the reservoir is full, this

symbol will stop flashing.

INSTRUCTIONS

8Installation instructions

Run a further 3 qt (3 L) through the system, stopping intermittently to ensure the reservoir is

flushed out. Failure to do this will result in excessive dripping from your dispenser.

Press until the Ice menu is highlighted then press to turn on the ice maker. Press

together to force a cycle. The ice tray will flip. Force another cycle. The ice tray will flip and spill

the water into the ice bin. Empty water and replace bin.

You are now ready to enjoy chilled water and ice dispensing from your Active Smart™ refrigerator.

Please note that once installation is complete a few drips may appear out of the dispenser over

the next few days as the remaining trapped air is cleared.

Important!

All connections must be checked for leaks.

If unsure of connection process and/or leaks then contact your local plumber to install and check

the system for you.

Ensure white ¼” (6 mm) tubing is routed away from sharp objects, sharp corners (beware of

kinking tube as this will stop water flow), clear of the refrigerator unit compartment and not in a

location where it can be squashed.

Ensure all push-fit connections are firmly pushed into place. The tube should push in ¾” (20 mm)

before reaching the stop.

If tubing is removed at any point, re-cut the end and re-insert. Tubing must be fully inserted to

avoid leaks.

To remove tube from connection points, turn off the

isolating faucet, push in the collet and gently pull

tubing at the same time, as shown in Diagram 11.
